Speed Humps

What are speed humps used for?

Speed humps are traffic calming devices designed to slow down vehicular traffic in specific areas. Their primary purpose is to improve road safety by reducing vehicle speeds, especially in locations with high pedestrian activity or where adherence to speed limits is crucial.By placing rubber speed humps strategically, we embrace a proactive approach to road safety. Their presence serves as a visual reminder to drivers to slow down, thereby mitigating potential risks. Through a combination of quality engineering, adherence to Australian standards, and commitment to using recycled materials, we contribute to a safer road environment for everyone.

Do speed humps work and are they effective?

Speed humps are effective at reducing vehicle speeds in designated areas. When strategically placed and properly designed, they compel drivers to slow down due to the discomfort caused by the abrupt change in elevation. However, their effectiveness can vary based on factors such as design, placement, driver compliance, and the specific road conditions.Speed humps are generally effective in reducing vehicle speeds in areas where slower traffic is desired, such as in residential zones, school areas, or parking lots. They contribute to enhancing safety by controlling speeding and improving pedestrian safety.

How to install speed humps?

Installing speed humps involves several steps. Firstly, an assessment may be required to determine the appropriate locations and types of speed humps needed. The road surface is prepared, and the humps are placed, typically through bolting or adhering to the road surface. The installation process may vary based on the type of speed hump and the road conditions. Speak to our staff if you have any specific questions.Their durable yet flexible nature allows them to withstand the demands of traffic while being gentle on vehicles. Our speed humps (also known as speed bumps) are engineered to endure the test of time, maintaining their effectiveness as traffic-calming measures.

How much do speed humps cost?

The cost of speed humps can vary based on factors such as the type, material, size, and quantity needed for a specific area. Generally, the cost includes the price of the hump itself. Installation and any additional road work required may incur additional fees. Prices can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per hump, depending on these factors.

Their high quality, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with Australian standards make them a superior choice for effective traffic-calming.

Increase Safety Of Pedestrians, Passengers, and Drivers:

Roads and streets remain dangerous for everyone using them. Specially, without traffic cones, wheel stops, traffic signs, road markings, road humps, and warning signs.In this manner, if a pedestrian sees a car coming at a slow speed, the pedestrian will have enough time to escape away and avoid running into the car.

Reduce The Severity Of Road Accidents:

Could we all agree that despite your best efforts to avoid them, accidents can occasionally happen. Installing a speed table or speed bump around a crosswalk, parking area, or pedestrian crossing notifies cars of the proper speed restriction. And, also assists them in moving slowly when necessary.
